Planning your visit

PLANNING YOUR VISIT

Sydney Observatory is open every night (session times vary) and day (10am to 5pm) except Christmas Day and Good Friday. The links at left have all the information you need to plan your visit. Charges apply to night and day telescope viewing sessions which include visits to the telescope domes, telescope viewing* and 3D space theatre experience – guided and explained by one of the Observatory’s astronomy educators. You can also do a self-guided visit of the exhibits and grounds for free from 10am to 5pm - but self-guided day tours don't include telescope viewing or beanbag planetarium, 3D space theatre or the informative guidance of an experienced astronomy educator.

*In the case of unclear sky, a fun beanbag planetarium session is held instead of the telescope viewing.
